    Adding data to a field on a table via a query (not append)


    I have a table where I capture several fields. Most of the fields are populated by a form, but I have two fields (columns) where a query needs to run to pull data from other tables. I do not know how to populate the fields and save the data on the table

    ID Description (from form) Month (from form) Sales (from query) Units (from query)
    1 Promotion a January How do I save data here from other query How do I save data here from other query
    2 Promotion b March How do I save data here from other query How do I save data here from other query
    3 Promotion c May How do I save data here from other query How do I save data here from other query

    Tell us about the "other tables". We can only guess what they might be.

    The other tables are sales table brought in via ODBC connection. My team enters the promotion description and other information that are important like dates into a form that populates a master table. I use the information in the master table to run a query against tables via OBDC connection. I just do not know how to add the results from the query back to the master table with and have it match up with the corresponding record. I hope this make sense.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
